Notes
- Use ripe mangoes: The sweetness and flavor of your Mangonada will largely depend on the ripeness of the mango. Choose mangoes that are soft to the touch and slightly fragrant.
- Adjust the sweetness: Depending on how sweet your mangoes are, you may not need much sugar. Taste and adjust accordingly.
- Customize the spice: Feel free to tweak the amount of chili powder or Tajín to suit your spice tolerance. If you prefer a milder flavor, start with a small pinch.
- Serve immediately: Mangonada is best served fresh, right after blending. This ensures the perfect texture and flavor balance.
- Try it with other fruits: If you want to mix things up, blend in other fruits like pineapple, watermelon, or strawberries to create a new twist on this classic drink!
